Powerful Inspiring Quotes to Passionately Drive Your Dreams Forward
…a reminder of what’s truly most important in life.
I’m an avid reader of books on inspiration, power of the mind and the like as most of my readers already know. But, additionally, I savor incredible and powerful quotes that truly give one food for thought and can literally change your life. There are several quotes that I hold near and dear to my heart and repeat them throughout my day as much as possible. They help remind me what’s truly most important in life and as well as keep me focused and steady in my path toward the life of my dreams.
Some of these quotes that have become as vital to my life as the air I breathe are as follows:
“God only blesses those who continue to bless other people.”
“If you can dream it, you can do it.”
-Walt Disney
“The only limits in life are those you place upon yourself.”
“You must be the change you wish to see in the world.”
-Mahatma Gandhi
I would say these are my staple, go-to-quotes, that on any given day can immediately lift me up and bring my thoughts and focus back to what’s truly most important in life. They can quickly snap me to attention and remind me that every single thing you say or do today will affect your tomorrow. That every “ripple” you create, will have a resounding effect on the world and will come back to return to you what that action created in the world. So, be wise with your words, your footsteps and your actions. The more you realize just how powerful your actions and words are, the more you’ll begin to walk with as much love and gratitude in your heart as possible. You’ll realize that every thing you do or don’t do for others is a direct reflection of how you would treat yourself. You can only give to others what you can give yourself. And, you can only receive from others that which you know you deserve; this I wholeheartedly believe.
Once I read that we’re all exactly where we wish to be at this given moment whether we choose to accept that reality or not. I sincerely believe this with all my heart.
So given this idea, you realize that you have much more control over the direction of your life than you may have ever thought before. You realize that the more good you do, the more blessings you receive, and the more blessings you will then be able to offer others. It is also my sincere opinion that life is simply a cyclic spiritual journey in which all we’re truly meant to do all day long is exchange love (= energy) all day long. I also believe though, that God plays a big role in the direction your path will go as well. I believe He gives you options and lets you choose which things you love the most. As long as you’re doing good in the world, continuing to bless others, He allows you to take whatever road you choose (i.e. a writer, singer, etc). And, He will continue to move you swiftly along that road if every time He asks a favor of you or cautions you about certain dangers you listen and follow accordingly. And the more in touch with Him you are, the more you realize that He makes His requests pretty loud and clear and straightforward.
So continue to hold tight to whatever keeps you faithfully focused on all the altruistically filled hopes and dreams in your heart. As long as you hold genuine love in your spirit and intentions, you will always be blessed with miracles and joy everywhere you go.
It’s as simple and as complex as that.
Be good to yourself and each other.

Very well said, Joie
Certainly, I agree on many things, but the famous ‘bad things happen to good people’ seems unfit in what You say.
Unfortunately, I realized things may not always be as You so wonderfully said here.
…….”And, you can only receive from others that which you know you deserve”
I do know wonderful people, generous, helpful, selfless, loyal, honest who went through unbelievable and horrible circumstances, definitely undeserved circumstances.
It’s hard to fit them in this scheme.
I do believe there’s more……
But certainly to live in a state of Blessings for ourselves and others certainly helps in any way

Dear M Russ,
You bring up a very valid point… because this was only a short 1 page article, it’s difficult to explain the entire complexity of the message this was intended to bring up.
After reading “Conversations With God” the idea that “you can only receive from others that which you know you deserve” was illuminated in my mind. For, if you believe the principles in the book, you’ll see that he believes that we must (if I remember correctly) know what NOT-love is to KNOW-what love is. In other words, good people must learn to understand the difference between love and not-love by experiencing it first hand. This is why people go through certain trials, it is an adjunct conversations that adds to the simple message intended in this brief article.
I sincerely appreciate your knowledge, time and wisdom in your comment.
Blessings.
Sincerely,
-Joie Schmidt.
